Summary
"The next time she sees Alexei, it is towards the end of January. He turns up one evening at her homestead, unannounced, and Melina has almost clicked the safety off the Makarov before recognizing him.
He’s grown out his beard, cut his hair, and shed those stupid glasses from Ohio. He grabs her in a crushing bear-hug, and she breathes in his familiar scent, realizes how much she has missed him."
***
Melina should have known better—after all, good things always come to an end, and love is just another weakness to be exploited.

Summary
"She knows they don’t deserve this, not Natasha, not Yelena. They deserve to grow up like the other children on the block, to ride their bicycles down the street without a care in the world, go to sleepovers with their classmates where they stay up late talking about crushes, and have the choice to go to college, get married, and have children of their own.
They deserve all the world has to offer.
But it is not hers to give."
